Paradigm
way you see something, your point of view, frame of
reference or belief.
Kinds of Paradigms
1. Paradigm of self
2. Paradigm of others
3. Paradigm of life
1. PARADIGM OF SELF
Self-concept
refers to our conscious and unconscious
perceptions and feelings about ourselves
regarding our worth as persons.
Negative Self-Concept when he sees that he has
little or no worth or feels unhappy about himself.
Positive Self-Concept when he sees himself to
have worth and he feels good about himself.
Serves both as a mirror and a filter.
Mirror because it reflects to us a picture of
ourselves, which in turn affects us either
positively or negatively.
Filters our experiences so that we interpret them
according to our existing perceptions of
ourselves.
Three Dimensions of Self-Concept:
1.1 Self-image
our perceptions and feelings about our worth
regarding our physical and social
appearance.
Physical – genetic inheritance such as sex
and race, and physical attributes such as
height, build, weight and others.
Social appearance – name, roles, status and
titles
A person who feels he suffers from some
form of physical or social handicap usually
develops a low self-image.
Positive Self-Image recognizes some of his
physical and social limitations but does not
allow these to deter him from feeling good
1.2. Self-confidence
our perceptions and feelings about our worth
with regard to our capabilities.
paves the way to productivity because the
person believes in his potentials.
Common roots which affect a person’s
confidence level are:
otoo much stress on achievement
operfection as a standard
ocomparing oneself with others
ofear of making mistakes or grades
1.3. Self-esteem
Our perceptions and feelings about our
worth regarding our lovability.
Known To Self Not Known To Self
Known To Others OPEN BLIND
Not Known To
Others
HIDDEN UNKNOWN
2. PARADIGM OF OTHERS
Seeing things from a different point of view can
help us understand why other people act the way
they do.
3. PARADIGMS OF LIFE
According to Covey, the most important thing
for each person is the thing you spend the most
time thinking about and is driving your choices.
Popular life centers for teens:
Friend-centered
Stuff-centered
Boyfriend/Girlfriend-Centered
School-centered
Parent-Centered
Other Possible Centers
Principle-centered – the real thing
The Seven Habits
constitute a principle-centered paradigm.
Principles
guidelines for human conduct that are proven to have
enduring, permanent value
Habit
recurrent, often unconscious pattern of behavior that
is acquired through frequent repetition.
A (good) habit
intersection of knowledge, skill and desire.
Change
cycle of being and seeing (visualization).
Knowledge
theoretical paradigm – “what to do and why.”
Skill
the “how to do it.”
Desire
the motivation, the “want to do it.”
MATURITY CONTINUUM
1. Dependence
Habits 1, 2 and 3 (Be Proactive, Begin with The End
In Mind, Put First Things First) deal with self-
mastery. They are the "private victories" required for
character growth. Private victories precede public
victories.
2. Independence
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are the more personality-oriented
"public victories" of Teamwork, Cooperation and
Communication.
3. Interdependence
Habit 7 is the habit of Renewal, creating an upward
spiral of growth.
